I also seen reports of machines with MM061 (Dell e1505) needed no keys. </blockquote><div style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"> Since my last test (which originally was with Fedora 7.92 + Rawhide) I have now installed the official F8 release, and I just retested both suspend and hibernate. It seems as though both modes work with or without any of the three keys, BUT: a) when coming out of suspend, the backlight IS on regardless of    the quirk keys enabled, but I _must_ perform a Ctl-ALT-F1,    CTL-ALT-F7 sequence to get the screen to be re-drawn. b) following a hibernate, the screen _is_ re-drawn because (for    some reason) the screen/screensaver thinks its locked, so the    unlock/password window is drawn. c) Regardless of the current test results, my earlier comment about:        lshal | grep system.hardware</div></div>   is still valid, it does NOT return 'Inspiron' in its string. Note: With F7.92 + Rawhide, I _did_ have to have the three keys enabled as per my original email, but then again, the screen was redrawn in both suspend and hibernate, and I did not need the CTL-Alt screen switching to force a redraw to occur. Is there anyway to get the forced screen redraw to occur? Fulko
